Bibliometric analysis of status quo and hotspots of health policy research under the concept of One Health based on CiteSpace / 中华地方病学杂志

ABSTRACT

Objective:To learn about the status quo and hotspots in the field of health policy research under the concept of One Health.Methods:The Web of Science Core Collection (WoS) database and China National Knowledge Infrastructure (CNKI) database from 2001 to 2020 were searched for publications in the field of health policy research under the concept of One Health. A total of 3 515 publications in English and 42 in Chinese were included, CiteSpace 5.6.R3 software was used to analyze the number of publications, countries, institutions, authors, and keywords, and to draw visual maps.Results:The number of publications in WoS database was 52 in 2001 and 500 in 2020, with an overall upward trend in the number of publications; the first relevant publication in CNKI database was published in 2009, and the number of publications increased to 13 by 2020, but the total number was still low (42). Among the countries, the USA had the highest number of publications (1 385), total citations (48 780) and highly cited (≥10 citations) publications (671). Switzerland had the highest citations per publication (89.72). China ranked 5th in the number of publications (160) and 8th in total citations (4 643) and citations per publication (29.02), with fewer highly cited publications (82). The English author partnership had a large collaborative team led by Chris Degeling at the University of Sydney; the Chinese author partnership had a large research team led by Lu Jiahai at the School of Public Health, Sun Yat-sen University. In terms of country cooperation, French node had the largest centrality (0.30), the centrality of Chinese nodes was 0.01. Emerging infectious diseases, zoonose, and antibiotic resistance were high-frequency keywords in the English publications, while COVID-19, zoonose, antibiotic resistance, and food safety were high-frequency keywords in the Chinese publications.Conclusions:From 2001 to 2020, the overall trend of the number of publications in health policy research under the concept of One Health worldwide is on the rise. Emerging infectious diseases, zoonose, antibiotic resistance, and food safety are the current research hotspots in this field.
